This was less straightforward than I had imagined. I noticed there were comparisons to King's classic Carrie (not sure I can agree there, except for the initial ten minutes or so). This is mostly something else, a subtle drama with no horror or fancy special effects.
It is challenging, because what is about? Humanity? Our shortcomings? The way things go although we except them to go somewhere else? At times it seems a bit buñuelian, with its centering on a young somewhat Christ like person rumoured to have special gifts and then there is the adult person aiming to do so well but is met with injustice.
An interesting movie (unfocused is one of its cons) that also brought Atom Egoyan's small town drama The Sweet Hereafter to mind. It might need two viewings (I had one so far).

An aging woman goes on an excursion in a scenic Hungarian countryside. Soon she gets lost and the scenery as well as the mood changes to dark and rainy. It develops into a suggestive horror story that can be interpreted a little either way. Well-made psychological thriller that surprises, based on a story by Shirley Jackson. I discovered it by a lucky accident. Is recommended.
I had never heard of director Attila Janisch before but he seems a filmmaker to seek out. Long Twilight is a suitable movie for the Lynch loving crowd (for Halloween perhaps?) featuring some nice haunted house chills in the second part.

More than 100 votes and no review so far is a bit surprising. Anyway, I checked out an old review that I wrote to this and I found the words "good acting" which is not as true after a second look. The lines are mainly delivered unconvincingly and slowly, as is the film itself: mostly tedious. It was obviously made in the wake of the success of Jan Troell's Emigrants epics (also starring Eddie Axberg), but this lacks what made those films great.
What it has is first and foremost beautiful cinematography and the pathos for its characters (it is clearly made in the very RED 1970s Sweden) but this is not the place to start looking for quality drama depicting 19th century Scandinavia.
